Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Ticks are crucial vectors of a wide range of pathogens, posing significant threats to human and animal health globally. Understanding the genetic basis of tick biology and host-parasite interactions is essential for developing effective control programs. This study investigates the fine-scale genetic structure of Hyalomma marginatum Koch, 1844, the primary vector of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever...
